The France star was sensational for the European champions last season, scoring 13 times and notching 27 assists from the left wing as Bayern romped to a historic treble triumph.

“He asked me which position I prefer to play and if I could possibly play on the 10,” Ribery told L’Equipe. “I answered that I am flexible on the offensive. He has many ideas.”
